Plone Advocacy
Through Plone's open-source community, Enfold Systems continues to demonstrate our long-term commitment to share and contribute our knowledge, software and resources to benefit others.
Our involvement with Plone goes back to its inception. Enfold Systems president, Alan Runyan, co-founded the Plone project and later the Plone Foundation. Since the beginning, Enfold has hosted conferences / events, contributed software and dedicated resources to enable the use of Plone in larger and more complex organizations.
Some of our efforts to evolve and promote Plone include:
- Alan Runyan co-founded Plone and the Plone Foundation
- Toby Roberts has been the Treasurer of the Plone Foundation since 2004
- Hosted the first Plone Conference and two subsequent Plone Symposiums in New Orleans
- Developed the first "pure" Zope 3 application and deploy the first Zope/Plone project that used Zope 3 components.
- Enfold Proxy released to provide robust Plone integration with Microsoft's web server
- Enfold Server released to provide a Plone distribution tightly integrated with Windows.
- Enfold Desktop released to provide extensible WebDAV support for the Plone CMS.
- Deployed the first Plone site using the Varnish reverse caching server
- Hosted Ploneablity and two World Plone Day events in Houston
- Enfold Systems continues to contribute bug fixes, enhancements and new feature resulting from client projects and in-house development projects to Plone and the open source community.
- Several Enfold Systems staff are/have been Plone Foundation members, officers and served on the Board of Directors.
